That’s a growth of 10% over last year. We must be doing something right!

Since we launched over 30 years ago, the Imprint Plus™ name badge system has been hugely popular, especially with those that need hospitality name badges. We think it’s because our name badge system fits perfectly with the hospitality business model.

Personalized name badges are standard in the hospitality industry, so we don’t have to convince you of their value. The burden of proof we bear is to show you why you should pick our name badge system over programs offered by our competitors.

One of the main reasons why our Imprint Plus reusable name badge system continuously beats out the competition is because of just that – your hospitality name badges will be part of a comprehensive system, as opposed to many name badges that are created and sold as a one-off.

Imprint Plus’ badge program gives you the power: name badges are sold in all-inclusive 20-unit name tag kits, which are designed to last a small to medium size property for about a year. This badge system reduces your shipping costs dramatically (not to mention lead times on new employee name badges). You’ll have the tools on-site to customize and create personalized hospitality name badges for your property.

Reusable Hospitality Name Badges

Another feature of the Imprint Plus™ name badge program that sets us apart is our reusable name badges are truly reusable. Sure, a lot of badge companies boast reusability, but are they truly reusable? Many employ adhesive tape to personalize the badges, so when you want to change the name, you have to un-stick and peel off the tape. Un-sticking tape from a badge (or anything really) can leave behind a sticky residue that is hard to clean off, and ruins the professional look of the name badge. From our perspective, tape personalization is not true reusability-it’s more of a band-aid solution.

The reusable name badge from Imprint Plus™ is truly reusable: The badge plate, personalized badge insert, lens cover and signature magnetic badge fastener fit together by design, not by tape. This means that they can be snapped together or snapped apart easily, and without damage. When a new team member comes on board and you need a new hospitality name tag, just toss out the old badge insert and slide in a new one. You won’t have to compromise at all on quality or style. The reused name badge will look exactly the same as the original one. We’re so proud of the innovative design and quality craftsmanship that went into our reusable name badges. We’re confident that you and your hospitality staff will love it, too.

“After much searching for a buffet labeling system, that looks good, works, and is interchangeable to every hotel’s needs, I think we have found one. This system enclosed not only allows you to be able to make your own buffet labels on an interchangeable basis, but also allows you to print and change them as many times as you wish, using whichever font, design and descriptions you like. The costs for these pieces are below, and considering the versatility in these pieces, the pricing is very good.

The software to operate this system is also very economical, and will allow you to be as creative with your buffet labeling descriptions as you wish.”
